Don't ever go there! They take half the settlement. The firm is so unorganized. You never know who you have as a lawyer. They totally mess up your case than want ten thousand or more to do a crappy job and lose everything for you. I have had lawyers before and they are thieves. Big thieves. Look them up! The other person who wrote the review is right. They are thieves. They will run you around in circles and tell you nothing but lies. I never knew any of the lawyers that showed up for the deposition.. which by the way will do and say nothing and prepare you for nothing. You do all the work and they claim they do thousands of dollars. I had so many different lawyers and legal assistants just like Eliz did. I couldn't keep up with any of the names. Switched around. It was exhausting. No one knew my case. The did such a crappy job and took half of my settlement also. I would never go to this firm again. They should be shut down for fraud claiming that they will only take a 1/3 yes than ten grand or more for nothing. Do not do not go to them. They are crooks. Here is one complaint on record: Christopher Trainor, P-42449, Detroit, Michigan, by Attorney Discipline Board Tri-County Hearing Panel #1. 1) Reprimand; 2) Effective July 27, 1994.

STOP DO NOT USE Christopher Trainor Associates! Called three times left messages for Christopher and Sean who both ignored my complaints! Got no response from Trainor!! When I called for help and spoke to Sean McGirddie who kept saying he was a "God fearing man and doing Gods work" I thought that was a strange thing for law clerk to keep saying. Called for help because a sadistic AAA Auto Insurance Adjuster Michelle Reimer refused to give my case to another adjuster so I can get the help I need for multiple CATASTROPHIC INJURIES. INcluding rib fractures. When Sean McGirdie got on the phone he told me he knows Michelle "she could not possibly do that!". Before I could ask for a new clerk he said "do not worry i can be objective" so I trusted him and agreed to have him help me. I thought maybe a "friend" of this evil adjuster could get her to give up my case. After a few phone calls to get Sean to help me he finally called Michelle "EVIL" Reimer and put me on hold then came back to the phone and said that the EVIL REIMER told him that she would not give up my case because I called her "EVIL". ALL BASED UPON VENGENCE! Proving she is pure evil!! Sean did not even realize he was supporting EVIL. Hard to see when you have normalized it! Found out Sean McGirddie of Trainor and Associates is DEVIL WORSHIPPER who PROTECTS A PURE EVIL RUTHLESS AAA Adjuster named Michelle Reimer!! Very manipulative and oppressive law clerk Sean is. read more

We are beyond grateful for the exceptional legal support we received from Amy at Christopher J. Trainor and Associates. After our wheelchair accessible van, an essential lifeline for our son, was damaged by a parking company at the hospital where he was undergoing surgery, we were left feeling helpless. Neither the hospital nor the parking company would take responsibility or assist us in any way. It was an incredibly stressful and emotional time for our family. Amy stepped in with empathy, professionalism, and determination. She not only took the time to understand how critical this vehicle is for our son's care and mobility, but she also fought tirelessly to hold the responsible party accountable. Thanks to Amy's diligence and expertise, the parking company agreed to cover the full cost of the damages, as well as provide a rental for an accessible vehicle while ours was being repaired. Amy truly went above and beyond, and we can't thank her enough for advocating for our family when no one else would. Her work made a meaningful difference in our lives, and we highly recommend her and the entire team at Christopher J. Trainor and Associates to anyone in need of dedicated, compassionate legal support. read more

DO NOT USE CHRISTOPHER TRAINOR! He took my police misconduct case ONLY to make money for himself from my suffering. He would not include every incident of misconduct from the police with no explanation. After almost 3 years in lawsuit proceedings and me mentally and physically exhausted. He manipulated and intimidated me into signing a settlement agreement that I DID NOT AGREE TO.! HE LIED and told me he would give me part of his attorney fees if I signed and wrote a good review for him. When I received paperwork it was not right. He then denied every telling me he would give me part of his attorney fees. NOW I have to write a formal complaint with the Michigan Attorney Bar Grievance Committee to try and hold him accountable for HIS misconduct. Bad enough fighting crooked police. Now I have to fight a crooked, LYING attorney. I pray for strength in this battle. DO NOT TRUST HIM. HE IS A LIAR. read more

I was Chris Trainor's office manager for 15 years. Chris was always a supportive boss and friend throughout my tenure with his office. Unfortunately, during my employment with Chris I was involved in a traumatic car accident, the injuries from which, caused me to have to leave my employment with Christopher Trainor & Associates. Chris was gracious enough to agree to represent my legal needs relating to the car accident. Chris did an amazing job handling my auto accident case. He is an outstanding attorney, as I've witnessed it from a professional standpoint and now on a personal level. He always puts his clients before anything else. I would recommend any of my friends and/or family members to seek legal counsel from Chris before going any place else, no matter what their legal needs are. read more

They actually care about their clients as people, not just cases. 5 stars isn't enough!!! read more

4 stars Mr Trainor was the only lawyer who would talk to me about my benefits I was entitled to years after a serious car accident which left me with cervical spine damage. I was typing on a website about how angry I was that no one would help me & he called me & asked questions & started getting attendant care paid & the medical bills which car insurance should have paid. Thanks to him & his staff I at least got some of the benefits I was still entitled to being the accident was so long ago. v read more

The smoked brisket and pulled pork were tender and flavorful, paired perfectly with their tangy BBQ sauce. The homemade sides, especially the coleslaw and baked beans, were fresh and tasty. The staff were friendly and efficient, making the experience enjoyable. The rustic, picnic-style seating under shady trees added charm, despite occasional road noise. Great value for money with generous portions. If you're in the area, it's definitely worth the stop for some delicious BBQ. read more
